Every engineer is also a technical writer, Episode Two

Every Engineer is also a technical writer, and Google offers free online training resources to learn to write clearly. Last year I promoted the first part, and now I'm promoting the second part.

There is a virtual live class coming up on Feb 27, and this meetup cross-promotes it. While I'm not affiliated with this training, I think it is cool stuff that deserves this cross promotion.

The course targets software engineers, software engineering students and computer science students. Some content is available for self-study, some of it is live presentations. I studied the pre-class material, and I already learned a lot.

This course is "Technical Writing Two", which practices four intermediate topics in technical writing: Self-editing, Organizing large documents, Illustrating and Creating sample code. To prepare for the virtual live class, study the pre-class material which might take you one hour to complete. If you haven't taken part one of the course, plan for another two hours for going through the pre-course material of that course as well.

See their announcement for details and also other upcoming parts of the course. The link to participate on their page is the same link on this Meetup invitation. I also tried my best to convert their time zone to Meetup, please double-check to make sure you will be online when the course starts.

As always, if you have questions or feedback, please reach out to me on Meetup or Twitter (@ahus1de), my inbox is always open! 📨

Practicalities:
Make this event an outstanding event for everyone! This training is hosted by Google, still it should be safe to assume they follow a code of conduct similar to ours.
